This meme uses three iterations of Cloud Strife, the protagonist of the Final Fantasy VII franchise, to make a relatable joke about generational differences in potato peeling skill. From left to right: the high-fidelity Cloud Strife model from Final Fantasy VII Remake is labeled 'The potatoes your grandma peeled' (representing perfectly peeled, high quality potatoes), the moderately detailed mid-poly Cloud model from early promotional material for the original 1997 Final Fantasy VII is labeled 'The potatoes your mom peeled' (representing decently peeled, passable potatoes), and the low-poly, blocky in-game Cloud model from the original 1997 Final Fantasy VII is labeled 'The potatoes you peeled' (representing poorly peeled, lumpy, low-quality potatoes). The joke implies that younger generations have worse potato peeling skills, with the title reassuring people that their skills will improve over time.

This is a two-panel comparison meme using the popular Mr. Incredible Becoming Uncanny format. The text at the top states the optimistic idea that AI doing all work for people would make life much simpler. The left panel labeled 'People a decade ago' features the brightly colored, smiling, positive version of Mr. Incredible to represent past optimistic views of AI. The right panel labeled 'People Now' features the dark, shadowed, uncanny strained version of Mr. Incredible to convey that modern widespread AI use has led to unexpected stress and negative experiences, contradicting earlier positive expectations.

This is a 2-panel comparison meme. The left side shows two images of the same Black man: the top image features him smiling widely and looking happy, paired with the text "1975 to 2000" on the right panel. The bottom left image shows the same man with a disappointed, unimpressed facial expression, paired with the text "2000 to 2025" on the right. The meme conveys the sentiment that the time period from 1975 to 2000 was perceived as better, while the 2000 to 2025 period fails to meet expectations, matching the original title.
